  2. Report cover

  3. Station locations General station locations along Potomac

  4. Table 1

  5. Transects map Lateral ADCP/profiler transect locations

  13. Along axis UMCES Data: D50 depends on location, elevation and TSS. Two distinct populations indicated: (i) suspended, (ii) flocculated

  14. Size vs. TSS Two populations at low C; Spectrum more peaked at high C D84 (m) D50 (m) D16 (m) Pump TSS (mg/l) (o 2004, x 2005)

  15. Inorganic Two populations: (i) highly inorganic, (ii) organic/inorganic mixture % Inorganic Pump TSS (mg/l) (o 2004, x 2005)

  16. TSS vs. speed TSS vs. Speed Pump TSS (mg/l) Current speed (cm/s) (o 2004, x 2005)

  17. TSS vs. sp, z<1 Nearbed TSS vs Speed Pump TSS (mg/l) Height above bed < 1 m Current speed (cm/s) (o 2004, x 2005)

  18. PCs Principal Component Analysis of Particle Size Spectra: Mean profiles shapes for cases with PC weightings > 2 or < -2 PC1 (84.4%) PC2 (8.0%) PC3 (5.7%) Normalized Vol. Conc. Size category (5 to 500 m) D84 (m) PC2 D50 (m) PC1 PC3 D16 (m) Principal Component Weighting
